Hi,
Do we want to honor whitespaces in table cells or not?
The main advantage of trimming them is to get aligned cell symbols.
See http://www.wikicreole.org/wiki/Creole1.0#section-Creole1.0-Tables
Right now we're honoring whitespaces (they are significant).
If we want to be consistent with normal wiki text we should honor
them
since we're honoring spaces in wiki text. However we just need to
agree that it won't be possible to get nicely aligned cell
delimiters
then.
WDYT?
One consideration. Right now you have to write the following:
|cell1|cell2|cell3
this is not very readable IMO compared to:
| cell1 | cell2 | cell3
However right now since whitspaces are honored if you write the
latter
you'll get:
<td> cell1 </td> in XHTML.
WDYT ?
Thanks.
